Tim Wallace Lights a 40 Meter Yacht with a Single ProTwin Head

Photographer Tim Wallace is not only known for his powerful and evocative images of prestige cars, but also for his exceptional understanding of how light works.

“For me it’s always been about light and experimenting,” says Tim. “ It’s always been about trying to get a story across. I always think that one single image should make a statement.”

Needless to say, this knowledge is applicable to any type of photography. In this video, for instance, Tim talks about how it came into play during a shoot of a massive yacht, when he used a single ProTwin Head equipped with a Magnum Reflector to overpower the sun in broad daylight and light up the entire rear of the yacht. He then takes us onboard and reveals how he bounced flash with a Softbox 1×6 RF.
